View Modes

There are two modes available for viewing sounds: Info View and 4-Column View. Selecting the Buttons shown above will toggle between modes.

Info View

This is the default view for all Browsers. The sounds are listed on the left and the area on the right contains details about the selected sound. If your mouse has a scroll-wheel, it can be used to scroll through the list of sounds.

The info area on the right includes the name of the sound, which part of the Library it belongs to (or the current Layer, in the case of Soundsources), a Zoom Button to access more detailed information, the file size of the sound, a thumbnail image for that sound type, Notes for the sound, and a Tags view to quickly check its Tags.

4-Column View

To see more sounds listed at once, select the 4-Column View. This will display the results in four columns. The vertical scrollbar is replaced with a horizontal scrollbar. Using the scroll-wheel on your mouse will still work for horizontal scrolling in 4-Column View mode.

5-Column View

To see more attributes listed at once, select the 5-Column View. The Attributes are listed from left to right in a larger area. The sounds are listed on the right.

This view has the advantage of displaying attributes that in other views can only be displayed by scrolling. The ratings can still be displayed by selecting the “Ratings” button on the top right of the list of sounds.

NOTE: The View Mode is saved when you exit the Browser.
